"I didn't mean to," Feng Qishi sat up.
Mu Anxiao leaned on her waist, still angry. "You're ruthless. It hurts so much."
On the bed beside them, Chen woke up amidst their bickering. "What's wrong?" she mumbled, rubbing her eyes and sitting up.
Mu Anxiao glanced at Chen and waved her hand. "Nothing."
Originally, the beggars in the ruined temple were unaware of Chen's arrival. Chen's opening her mouth had drawn them all over.
Lin Yan was the first to round the screen, then pointed at Chen with excitement, "It's you."
"Who are you?" Chen was not fully awake yet.
Lin Yan was still excited. "I'm the one who told you their whereabouts yesterday. Don't you remember?"
"Oh, it's you," Chen nodded.
Mu Anxiao saw Lin Yan's solicitous expression towards Chen, and then Chen's bewildered look. She asked, "Lin Yan, what are you so excited about this early in the morning?"
Lin Yan hadn't intended to address Mu Anxiao, but when she spoke, his entire attention shifted to her. "How dare you, Boss Feng? You're asking for death!" he pointed at Mu Anxiao.
Mu Anxiao was not intimidated by Lin Yan. "I'm asking for death, can you kill me?"
"You..."
"Stop talking about her for now," Feng Qishi interrupted, glancing at Lin Yan. "Starting tonight, wash your feet clean, and I'll sleep with you."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yan was stunned and turned to Feng Qishi, pointing at himself. "You want to sleep with me?"
After what had just happened, Feng Qishi still didn't want to sleep with Mu Anxiao. Regardless of her current identity, he felt uncomfortable.
"Yes," he nodded.
Lin Yan believed Feng Qishi possessed an unusual aura, and the moment Feng Qishi agreed, he became inexplicably excited. "Great!"
Feng Qishi questioned, "What are you so happy about?"
Lin Yan replied, "Actually, I've wanted to sleep with you for a long time."
Except for the time he disgusted Feng Qishi with his floating, no man had ever spoken to Feng Qishi like this. Lin Yan's current behavior genuinely startled Feng Qishi.
"Hey, are you crazy?"
Worried that Feng Qishi might misunderstand him, Lin Yan quickly explained, "No, I mean, I feel like I'll have good luck if I sleep with you."
Feng Qishi's face twitched. "What kind of twisted logic is that?"
Since Feng Qishi's arrival, their lives had changed. At some point, Feng Qishi had become a sacred presence in their hearts.
Therefore, whatever Feng Qishi decided was right in their eyes, and every word he spoke was the truth.
"It's not twisted logic, it's the truth," Lin Yan said with a grin.
Feng Qishi: "..."
Then, Zeng squeezed past them, stepped forward to look at Feng Qishi, who had suddenly fallen silent, and then glanced at the other silent people on both sides. "Um, can I say something?"
Feng Qishi nodded. "Go ahead."
Zeng took another step forward. "I think you can squeeze onto my bed, because I'm quite thin."
Previously, Feng Qishi hadn't paid attention to Zeng's build. When Zeng mentioned it, he realized that Zeng was indeed much thinner than children his age, especially seeing his bone-thin arms and legs. He couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy.
"..." Feng Qishi.
Seeing Feng Qishi's silence, Zeng's heart sank, and he said weakly, "If you don't agree, then forget it."
